Winner: DRX
The series kicked off with both teams seemingly evenly-matched, but DRX was able to grab a lot of advantages through team fights and started their snowball. As BRO struggled to claim objectives and resources, DRX slowly choked them out as they accrued a significant gold lead and ultimately closed out the first game in a rather convincing fashion.
The second game more or less mirrored the first one with DRX and BRO going even. Although all seemed lost for BRO due to their comp, they managed to punish LazyFeel's positioning and ultimately came out on top my equalizing the series 1-1.
Finally, after a very long in-game pause, DRX managed to get the upper hand and defeat BRO 2-1.
